E             F#m
   Hello Dan,    it's Joe here,
G#m                      F#m
   I hope you're keeping well,
E                       F#m
   it’s the 21st of December
G#m                             F#m
   now they’re ringing the last bell.
A                           G#m
   If I get good behaviour
A                               B
   I'll be out of here by July,
E                            F#m
   won’t you kiss my kids on Christmas day,
G#m       F#m                      E
   please don't let them cry for me.
F#m    G#m    F#m
 
 
[Verse]
 
E                                        
   I guess the brothers are driving down 
     F#m
from Queensland
G#m                                F#m
   and Stella's flying in from the coast.
E                                   F#m
   They say it's gonna be a hundred degrees, 

even more maybe,
G#m               F#m
   but that won't stop the roast.
A                       G#m
   Who's gonna make the gravy now?
A                           B
   I bet it won't taste the same
E                        F#m
   Just add flour, salt, a little red wine 

and don't forget a
G#m                        F#m
dollop of tomato sauce for sweetness 

and that extra tang.
 
 
[Bridge]
 
                    E     
And give my love to Angus 
       F#m
and to Frank and Dolly,
                 G#m   
Tell 'em all I'm sorry 
          F#m
I screwed up this time.
               E     
And look after Rita, 
                 F#m
I'll be thinking of her,
                G#m      
early Christmas morning, 
         F#m           E
when I'm standing in line.
F#m    G#m    F#m

E                          F#m
   I hear Mary's got a new boyfriend,
G#m                       F#m
   I hope he can hold his own
E                                F#m
   Do you remember the last one?    

What was his name again?
G#m                            F#m
  (Just a little too much cologne)
A                      
   And Roger, you know 
               G#m
I'm even gonna miss Roger
A                           
'Cause there's sure as hell 
               B
no one in here I want to fight
 
 
[Bridge]
 
                   E      
Oh praise the Baby Jesus, 
             F#m
have a Merry Christmas,
                 G#m      
I'm really gonna miss it, 
                         F#m
all the treasure and the trash
                 E        
And later in the evening, 
            F#m
I can just imagine,
                     G#m    
You'll put on Junior Murvin 
                    F#m
and push the tables back
                      E     
And you'll dance with Rita, 
                  F#m
I know you really like her,
                    G#m        
Just don't hold her too close, 
           F#m
oh brother please don't stab me in the back
                 E         
I didn't mean to say that, 
                     F#m
it's just my mind it plays up,
                G#m     
Multiplies each matter, 
            F#m
turns imagination into fact
                    E      
You know I love her badly, 
                 F#m
she's the one to save me,
                    G#m    
I'm gonna make some gravy, 
                    F#m
I'm gonna taste the fat
                  E      
Tell her that I'm sorry, 
                F#m
yeah I love her badly,
                 G#m    
tell 'em all I'm sorry, 
                    F#m
and kiss the sleepy children for me.
                      E     
You know one of these days, 
               F#m
I'll be making gravy,
               G#m     
I'll be making plenty, 
          F#m         E
I'm gonna pay 'em all back.
F#m    G#m    F#m
